Got to love a bit of multi-terrain running for an extra special appreciation of roads (after slipping and sliding up muddy fields)! Another epic hill but a run three miles back down.

At 12pm on Saturday 22nd July, our teams were started off by Andrew Bagley, Pete Lambert and Jim Lambert to glorious sunshine and hot weather...requiring suncream. The night before, some of our campers were treated to non-stop rain and storms, so the 10k was quite muddy.

After a few more laps, the heavens opened and the rain came down for a few hours. This made the trail much muddier.

Our team had made some amazing times despite the muddy ground and the rain!

Overnight, our team members continued and even the Chairman Oli, made a double lap! Well done Oli!

Typical British weather, by Sunday morning the ground had turned to a sticky mud and the rain stopped. Charlotte Taylor and Rob Taylor also joined us for a lap!

​Tom's words to describe it following the event "Well that was hard work... Wind in the face and 4 hours in the rain. Like a drowned rat with trench foot. Had to take it easy with a buckled wheel for last 10km....Finished though"
